Remembering 9/11

This weekend marks the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks on our country. For many people this is an emotional anniversary and I will never forget where I was that morning or the feeling of sadness and fear that I felt while watching the news. I know that many of our Lakeview students are too young to remember this day. For me this weekend is a time to remember the lives that were lost and those that changed forever. It is also a reminder that our lives will never be the same in this country and that we all have to take a lot of precautions now to ensure our safety and security.

Take a few moments this weekend to remember those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001.
